Fettuccine with morels, asparagus and goat cheese

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
½ cup Minced shallot
2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
½ cup Dry white wine
½ cup Chicken broth
½ pounds Fresh morels; washed well,
Patted dry; and trimmed
½ cup Heavy cream
6 ounces Mild goat cheese such as Montrachet; crumbled
¾ pounds Asparagus; trimmed, and
Cut into 1/2\" pieces
¼ cup Minced fresh chives
Salt; to taste
Freshly-ground black pepper; to taste
¾ pounds Fettucine

Directions

Cook the asparagus in boiling salted water for 2 to 3 minutes, or until tender. Set aside. In a heavy skillet cook the shallot in the butter over moderately-low heat, stirring, until it is softened, add the wine, and simmer the mixture until the wine is reduced by half. Add the broth and morels, sliced crosswise, and simmer the mixture, covered, for 10 minutes, or until the morels are tender. Add the cream and goat cheese and cook the mixture over low heat, stirring until the cheese is melted. Stir in the asparagus, chives, and salt and pepper to taste and keep the sauce warm. In a kettle of boiling salted water cook the fettuccine until it is al dente, drain it well, and in a bowl toss the pasta with the sauce. This recipe yields 4 to 6 servings as a first course.
